 on complaint charging him with an as
 sault to commit rape upon the person 0 Miss Candelaria Felix on last Sunday. Tn
 examination was held Thursday before Jus
 tice Ringwald, with closed doors, every
 body being excluded except the parties
 the attorneys and witnesses. The impor
 tunities of our reporter for admission to thu
 temple of justice was promptly and firmly
 refused. The aforesaid reporter was there
 in spirit, however, if not in person, and
 succeeded in gathering up the main points of the evidence of the only witnesses ex- amined, viz: Miss Feliz and the accused.
 The former was first placed on the stand snd testified in substance as follows: 'I was in the kitchen when Verdugo came up to the window and began talking to me. He asked me to marry him, and 1 told him to
 go away, that 1 wanted to have nothing to do with him. He left, but after a while returned. My aunt, with whom live, was away and was alone. Verdugo came in to the house and took hold of me. l told him to let go of me, but he did not, and asked him what he wanted, and he said, You know what I want He forced me into chair and then took me by force into another room and set me down on a bed. He then attempted to take improper iber- ties with my person. My clothes were torn and was bruised 50 badly in resisting him hat have been sick ever since, I scream ed and he finally got frightened and went away" The prisoner told very different story to the court when placed on the stand in his own behalf He stated that he was going down to the laguns when she hailooed to him and asked him to come in. She was in the kitchen. He told her he;didn't want to, he was afraid of her anUt' She said her aunt was away and she was alone. He then went in and she asked him for hand kerchief which he had. He told her he wanted it, but she snatehed away from him and put it around her ueck. He asked her to give it to him, her aunt would come and be mad at them. She would not and he told her he would tell her aunt what she had been doing. She then got mad and threw the handkerchief at him, when he eft. Two other witnesses were sworn but were not examined. The conrt held the prisoner to answer for an aggravated assault with bail fixed at $500.
 There is probably no country under the sun that enjoys so even tempered climate as Yuma On &his account it is not only a great sanitarium but it can be utilized in various ways to the advantage of the resi- dent. It is a natural incubator, and to the man who wishes to engage in chicken cul- ture we would say, "there's thousands in it." Now we all know that in order to hatch, eggs must be kept at uniform tenn perature of about 70 degrees day and night. xhsther it be done by natural or artificial means. To rig contrivance to effect this has taxed the genius of incubator inventors to the utmost. Now, in Yuma we have no need of the store incubators and the chicken farmer is saved all that expense. All he has to do is to construct some neat nests, empty into them bnshel or two of eggs and in due time the chicks walk cut of the shells as healthy, robust and proud as if they had been sat upon by thoroughbred Southdown or any other fancy imported female chicken. Judge Purdy new has in his chickenry as fine brood of chicks as ever we have seen, and they were incubat- ed in the manner above mentioned. There is nothing like climate and there is no cli- mate 80 uniform and mild as we have right here ia Yuma.
